- ArcGIS Maps SDK for JavaScript 4.22
The UtilityNetworkTrace widget provides a way to run traces in a Utility Network based on connectivity or traversability from set input flags.
Input flags (starting points and barriers) can be set by clicking the view. Alternatively, the widget allows setting input flags programmatically on creation, or at runtime, by setting the flags property.
The widget can execute one or multiple traces concurrently by selecting them from the trace types dropdown. Trace types can be preset in the widget programmatically on creation, or at runtime, by setting the selectedTraces property.

The trace results are returned as a selection or as graphics, or both (if aggregated geometry is set as a Result Type).

The resulting selection of features can be visualized in a list organized by asset groups and asset types if the showSelectionAttributes property is true.
In the image above, the left image displays a list of trace results filtered by asset group. The center image displays a list of asset types for the asset group "Service Point". The right image displays a list of features for the asset type "Single Phase Low Voltage Meter".
Nonspatial data can be included as trace starting points and barriers. Additionally, users can examine nonspatial data within the trace results.

Notes
The UtilityNetworkTrace widget class is unable to support proxied feature services or feature services that utilize stored credentials.
Requires a WebMap published with a Utility Network and shared named trace configurations (Available at Enterprise 10.9).
The network topology must be enabled and the results of a trace are not guaranteed to be accurate if dirty areas are traced. The network topology for the area to be traced must be validated to reflect the most recent edits or updates made to the network.
Running traces on map services is not supported.
Support for adding nonspatial features as trace locations and displaying Utility Network Associations info in the trace result require using a WebMap with popups including UtilityNetworkAssociationsContent.
Updating the map property in the View does not automatically refresh the contents of the UtilityNetworkTrace widget.
Example
// Create a new instance of the UtilityNetworkTrace widget and set// its required parameters.const unTraceWidget = new UtilityNetworkTrace({ view: view});
view.ui.add(unTraceWidget, "top-right");Constructors

- Returns
- void
emit
- Signature
-
emit <Type extends EventNames<this>>(type: Type, event?: this["@eventTypes"][Type]): boolean
- Type parameters
- <Type extends EventNames<this>>
Emits an event on the instance. This method should only be used when creating subclasses of this class.
hasEventListener
- Signature
-
hasEventListener <Type extends EventNames<this>>(type: Type): boolean
- Type parameters
- <Type extends EventNames<this>>
Indicates whether there is an event listener on the instance that matches the provided event name.
Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description | Required |
|---|---|---|---|
| type | Type | The name of the event. | |
- Returns
- boolean
Returns true if the class supports the input event.

- Signature
-
isFulfilled (): boolean
isFulfilled() may be used to verify if creating an instance of the class is fulfilled (either resolved or rejected).
If it is fulfilled, true will be returned.
- Returns
- boolean
Indicates whether creating an instance of the class has been fulfilled (either resolved or rejected).
isRejected
- Signature
-
isRejected (): boolean
isRejected() may be used to verify if creating an instance of the class is rejected.
If it is rejected, true will be returned.
- Returns
- boolean
Indicates whether creating an instance of the class has been rejected.
isResolved
- Signature
-
isResolved (): boolean
isResolved() may be used to verify if creating an instance of the class is resolved.
If it is resolved, true will be returned.
- Returns
- boolean
Indicates whether creating an instance of the class has been resolved.
on
- Signature
-
on <Type extends EventNames<this>>(type: Type, listener: EventedCallback<this["@eventTypes"][Type]>): ResourceHandle
- Type parameters
- <Type extends EventNames<this>>
Registers an event handler on the instance. Call this method to hook an event with a listener.
Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description | Required |
|---|---|---|---|
| type | Type | An event or an array of events to listen for. | |
| listener | EventedCallback<this["@eventTypes"][Type]> | The function to call when the event fires. | |
- Returns
- ResourceHandle
Returns an event handler with a
remove()method that should be called to stop listening for the event(s).Property Type Description remove Function When called, removes the listener from the event.
Example
view.on("click", function(event){ // event is the event handle returned after the event fires. console.log(event.mapPoint);}); when
- Signature
-
when <TResult1 = this, TResult2 = never>(onFulfilled?: OnFulfilledCallback<this, TResult1> | null | undefined, onRejected?: OnRejectedCallback<TResult2> | null | undefined): Promise<TResult1 | TResult2>
when() may be leveraged once an instance of the class is created. This method takes two input parameters: an onFulfilled function and an onRejected function.
The onFulfilled executes when the instance of the class loads. The
onRejected executes if the instance of the class fails to load.
Parameters
| Parameter | Type | Description | Required |
|---|---|---|---|
| onFulfilled | OnFulfilledCallback<this, TResult1> | null | undefined | The function to call when the promise resolves. | |
| onRejected | The function to execute when the promise fails. | |
- Returns
- Promise<TResult1 | TResult2>
Returns a new promise for the result of
onFulfilledthat may be used to chain additional functions.
Example
// Although this example uses MapView, any class instance that is a promise may use when() in the same waylet view = new MapView();view.when(function(){ // This function will execute once the promise is resolved}, function(error){ // This function will execute if the promise is rejected due to an error});Events
